Dear Jendco Safety Supply,

​I hope this letter gets to you in time to make a difference. Let’s get this out there: People are stupid.

I am sure you know that there has been a run on rubber gloves and surgical masks due to the COVID-19 outbreak in the US. I am sure you also already know that the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention have said neither masks nor gloves is gonna help, and that by buying these items people are actually creating a shortage for the medical professionals that actually need masks and gloves to do their jobs. Like I said, people are stupid. I know because I am one of them!

There’s a missed opportunity here. Rather than telling people what won’t work, someone should step up and tell people what will work. I am thinking of purchasing a HazMat suit or one of your ChemMax 3 suits. I figure with one of these bad boys I’ll be able continue shopping, going to the movies, work, and maybe even working out! But I don’t want to waste my money on something that’s not going to protect me. So will either of these suits keep me safe from all viruses, or just sexually transmitted ones? I mean, if they won’t work, I don’t want to create an artificial shortage that will adversely affect those who truly need full body protection. But I, like most people, am in desperate need of guidance and of a solution to keep myself safe. Should I buy the HazMat suit or a ChemMax 3?

I’m a fairly big guy, so I will probably need an XXL. I will also need directions on how to go potty in one of these suits. I am hoping this doesn’t entail a diaper, but I am willing to do whatever I need to in order to keep myself safe. I will also need one for my partner. She’s tiny, so if you have a kid’s suit of something that would be great!

Just let me know what I need to buy.

Sincerely,

Christopher L. Jorgensen
